(snakemake#4049)

Update versions for the following tests such that packages are available
on macos-arm64.

- `test_issue635`
- `test_wrapper`, `test_wrapper_qsub`, `test_wrapper_local_git_prefix`

Where the test behaviour depends on a specific old version, or where no
version of a package is available, skip this test:

- `test_script` (Julia is not in standard Conda channels for
macOS-arm64; `juliaup` is, but there's no way to pin a specific
version.)
- `test_conda_python_3_7_script`
- `test_script_pre_py39`

In one more case, that the test wasn't already skipped seems erroneous:
`test_conda_pin_file` had the comment "the testcase only has a linux-64
pin file", but was only skipped on Windows. This is now skipped on any
non-Linux OS.

### QC
<!-- Make sure that you can tick the boxes below. -->

* [X] The PR contains a test case for the changes or the changes are
already covered by an existing test case.
* [X] The documentation (`docs/`) is updated to reflect the changes or
this is not necessary (e.g. if the change does neither modify the
language nor the behavior or functionalities of Snakemake).

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **Tests**
* Added platform checks and a skip marker to skip tests on macOS Apple
Silicon where required Conda packages are unavailable.
* Replaced a Windows-only gating with a Linux-only condition for a
pin-file test.
  * Applied macOS ARM skips to multiple tests.
  * Switched the test wrapper to use a different compression tool.
* Updated the R test environment to newer r-base and r-rmarkdown
versions.
